Donald Trump achievements: Foreign policy (2018)
- Main article: Donald Trump achievements: Foreign policy
This article is a list of achievements by U.S. President Donald Trump, his administration, and Congress related to his foreign policy in 2018.
By mid-2018, President Trump had made a large impact in the world through his foreign policy.[1] His decisions and approach to foreign policy conflicted with the establishment's favored policies,[2] and his policies on foreign aid reflected his skepticism of "nation-building."[3] The administration continued to defend American sovereignty.[4] Despite this, neither the Trump Administration nor Congress moved to reduce U.S. foreign military presence, although analysts believed the president used that issue as leverage with foreign nations.[5] The Trump Administration made protecting international religious freedom a priority.[6]

Executive actions, 2018
United Nations and other international organizations
The Trump Administration took actions related to the United Nations and similar international organizations:
- June 19, 2018—The Trump Administration announced it would leave the United Nations Human Rights Council due to its hypocrisy and bias against Israel, making the U.S. the first nation ever to leave the organization.[12]
- UN Ambassador Nikki Haley effectively pushed for American businesses to receive a larger share of UN contracts.[13]
- August 23, 2018—President Trump signed a memorandum making it U.S. policy to end international mail discounts created by a UN agency which made it cheaper to send a product to the U.S. from a foreign country than from a location inside the United States.[14] On October 17, 2018, the Trump Administration formally announced it would begin the process of withdrawing from the Universal Postal Union.[15]
- September 10, 2018—The Trump Administration, through National Security Advisor John Bolton, announced it would take a tough stance toward the International Criminal Court, labeling it "illegitimate" and calling it a threat to "American sovereignty and U.S. national security interests."[4][16][17]
- September 25, 2018—President Trump spoke at the UN General Assembly.[18] He gave a strongly conservative speech which emphasized national sovereignty, patriotism, and his America First philosophy, and which criticized globalism by name.[19] He also defended his administration's decisions to withdraw the U.S. from the UNHRC, the ICC, the Iran nuclear deal, and the Global Compact on Migration, along with defending his trade policies.[19] He pledged to review U.S. foreign aid and to put America's interests first when giving money to other countries.[19] Among other strong statements, President Trump stated that "we will never surrender American sovereignty to an unelected, unaccountable global bureaucracy. America is governed by Americans," and that "we reject the ideology of globalism, and we embrace the doctrine of patriotism."[19] He also stated that "responsible nations must defend against threats to sovereignty" and that "America will always choose independence and cooperation over global governance, control and domination."[19] President Trump criticized OPEC for raising the price of oil despite relying on the U.S. for defense,[20] and he condemned China for its trade practices.[21] He criticized socialism, using Venezuela to illustrate the system's harmful effects.[22] President Trump reserved some of his strongest criticism for Iran.[23] He called for refugees to remain in their home countries and criticized globalist migration policies.[24] The following day, President Trump chaired a UN Security Council meeting, in which he criticized Iran and accused China of interfering in the upcoming midterm elections.[25]
- October 3, 2018—After the International Court of Justice ruled that the U.S. could not impose certain sanctions on Iran, the Trump Administration defied the organization, withdrawing from the 1955 Treaty of Amity between the two countries, as well as from an optional protocol of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations.[26] The administration also announced it would review every international agreement that might compromise U.S. sovereignty to the ICJ.[26]
- November 13, 2018—The U.S. voted against a UN General Assembly resolution praising the UNHCR and endorsing the Global Compact for Refugees – the latter of which the U.S. announced it would withdraw from – because it conflicted with American "sovereign interests."[27] That resolution had previously been approved by consensus in the 60 years of its existence before the Trump Administration requested a vote on the matter, and the U.S. was the only country to vote against the resolution.[27] On December 17, 2018, the United States voted against the Global Compact on Refugees, being joined only by Hungary.[28]
- The Trump Administration continued its opposition to the globalist Global Compact on Migration in 2018, voting against it during UN votes on December 10[29] and 19.[30] Additionally, numerous other countries followed the Trump Administration's lead in opposing the migration compact.[31]
- In late 2018, the Trump Administration downgraded the European Union's diplomatic status from that of a "nation-state" to an "international organization," reversing a September 2016 Obama Administration decision.[32] This change, however, turned out to be temporary, as the U.S. restored the EU ambassador's diplomatic status on March 4, 2019.[33]
Foreign aid
The Trump Administration took several steps to reduce and improve aid to foreign countries, and it took a skeptical stance toward nation-building.[3]
- January 2018—Not only did the U.S. withhold $255 million in military aid to Pakistan due to its lack of cooperation with U.S. counterterrorism efforts,[34] but it suspended all security assistance with the country which amounted to at least $900 million.[35] The U.S. also placed Pakistan on a watchlist for "severe violations of religious freedom" on January 4.[36] These moves came after President Trump tweeted about the country, accusing it of "lies & deceit."[37] The Pentagon announced on September 1, 2018, that the Trump Administration had permanently canceled $300 million in Coalition Support Funds to Pakistan.[38]
- January 8, 2018—The USAID announced that it had renegotiated an agreement with the UN which would allow the U.S. to better help persecuted religious and ethnic minorities, including Christians, in Iraq.[39] Vice President Mike Pence ordered the agency to end its bureaucratic delays in June 2018 after it was reported that Iraqi Christians had not received the promised funding,[40] and USAID soon announced it would give over $100 million to Christians and Yazidis in Iraq by the end of Fiscal Year 2018.[41][42]
- January 16, 2018—The Trump Administration announced it was withholding $65 million of a planned $125 million payment to the U.N. Relief and Works Agency, which provides services to Palestinians.[43] On January 18, the State Department announced that the U.S. would withhold an additional $45 million for Palestinian food aid.[44] On August 31, 2018, the Trump Administration announced it would permanently defund UNRWA, cutting nearly $300 million.[45]
- On March 30, 2018, it was reported that President Trump had frozen $200 million designated for recovery efforts in Syria,[46] and in August of that year, the administration made its decision permanent.[47] Also, in May 2018, the Trump Administration withdrew additional aid for northeastern Syria.[48] Despite this, the Trump Administration announced on June 14, 2018, that it would resume funding for Syria's "White Helmets" rescue group and gave them $6.6 million.[49]
- August 24, 2018–The Trump Administration announced it would cut over $200 million in Palestinian aid and spend it elsewhere.[50] On September 8, 2018, the State Department announced it would cut another $25 million in aid to Palestinians because of their unwillingness to engage in peace talks.[51]
- November 15, 2018—USAID announced a new policy expanding its funding of private and religious schools in developing countries.[52]
Israel
The Trump Administration took several actions related to Israel. By 2018, relations between President Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu were clearly and significantly better than Netanyahu's relationship with Obama.[53] Under President Trump, U.S. policy toward Israel had become noticeably more supportive,[54] as illustrated by voicing strong support for "Israel's right to defend itself" against threats such as Hamas[55] and a U.S. Navy ship docking at the Israeli port of Ashdod for the first time in nearly 20 years.[56] The Trump Administration also strongly supported Israel at the United Nations.[57]
- April 2018—The United States submitted a position paper to a Geneva preparatory committee for a nuclear non-proliferation conference that aligned itself with Israel's position that it should not be required to discuss giving up nuclear weapons without recognition by all Middle Eastern nations of its right to exist.[58]
- May 14, 2018—The U.S. officially moved its embassy in Israel to Jerusalem, fulfilling an important campaign promise and something done after President Trump officially recognized Jerusalem as Israel's capital in 2017.[59] While not attending in person, President Trump celebrated the move and recorded a video message for the ceremonies.[60]
- The Trump Administration illustrated its pro-Israel stance by cutting its foreign aid to UNRWA[45] and to the Palestinian Authority.[50]
- September 10, 2018—The Trump Administration announced it would close the Palestine Liberation Organization's mission in Washington, D.C., because of the Palestinians' unwillingness to engage in peace talks and their efforts to get the International Criminal Court to prosecute Israel.[16][61]
- October 18, 2018—The Trump Administration announced it would close its Jerusalem consulate dealing with Palestinian issues and merge it into the U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem.[62] The U.S. implemented this decision and merged the consulate on March 4, 2019.[63]
- November 16, 2018—For the first time, the U.S. voted against – rather than abstaining, as it previously did – an annual UN resolution calling on Israel to withdraw from the Golan Heights, marking a significant shift in U.S. policy.[64]

The Trump Administration continued taking a tough stance against Iran.[65] Here are some of the actions taken against the country:

- August 6, 2018—President Trump signed an executive order reimposing many of the U.S. sanctions on Iran that existed before the nuclear deal.[77] The sanctions went into effect at midnight between August 6 and 7.[78] On November 2, 2018, the Trump Administration announced it would reimpose all remaining sanctions on Iran,[79] though it granted exemptions to eight countries.[80] The sanctions and waivers went into effect on November 5, 2018.[81]
- October 3, 2018—After the International Court of Justice ruled that the United States could not impose certain sanctions on Iran because it violated the 1955 Treaty of Amity between the two countries, the Trump Administration withdrew the U.S. from that treaty, as well as from an optional protocol of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations.[26]

- July 2018—President Trump took a tough stance at the annual NATO summit.[109] Before and during the summit, he continued pressuring other NATO member states to increase their defense spending.[110] He also pointed out Germany's hypocrisy in relying on the U.S. for defense but being dependent on Russia – a supposed enemy – for its energy needs,[111] and he said he warned the European countries about their immigration problems.[112] At the end of the summit, President Trump stated that NATO's member states had increased their contribution pledges due to his tough stance.[113]
China
Based on several U.S. strategic documents and other government reports, the Trump Administration was taking a stronger stance against China compared to its predecessors.[114] The U.S. also took a tougher stance specifically in relation to Taiwan.[115] On September 7, 2018, the U.S. recalled three of its ambassadors because the countries they were stationed in had cut ties with Taiwan in favor of China,[116] though one day earlier, the State Department used terminology favored by China to refer to Taiwan.[117]

- April 20, 2018—In the State Department's annual human rights report, in addition to criticizing countries such as China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea for human rights abuses,[137] it removed the phrases "occupied" and "occupation" when referring to Israel's authority over the West Bank,[138][139] and it removed the Obama-era policy of listing abortion as a "human right."[139][140] Despite this, the report was still biased in favor of the homosexual agenda.[141]
- As in 2017, the Trump Administration remained successful in freeing Americans detained in other countries.[142] For example, three Americans were released from North Korea through the Trump Administration in May 2018,[91] and one American was released from Venezuela later that month.[143]
- August 1, 2018—The Trump Administration sanctioned high-ranking Turkish officials for refusing to release detained American pastor Andrew Brunson because of charges the administration considered unjust.[144] On August 10, 2018, President Trump announced the U.S. would double its aluminum and steel tariffs against Turkey, an action related to the dispute over Brunson.[145] The Turkish government released Brunson on October 12, 2018.[146]

- July 24–26, 2018—The State Department hosted the first-ever U.S. government summit on religious freedom.[155] At the end of the summit, the State Department released the Potomac Declaration and the Potomac Plan of Action, which emphasized the importance of religious liberty to the U.S. government, called on other countries to protect religious freedom, and outlined specific steps for these countries to follow to protect religious freedom. The Trump Administration also announced the establishment of an International Religious Freedom Fund, as well as the Genocide Recovery and Persecution Response Program to quickly provide aid to persecuted religious minorities.[42][156]

Other achievements, 2018
While the following achievements were not official United States government policy actions by the Trump Administration, they were closely related to the Trump Administration and its policies:
- February 2018—While not outright opposed to the EU's common military agreement, the Trump Administration voiced skepticism toward it for potentially undermining NATO and creating trade barriers to American-made military technology.[171] Later, in April 2018, President Trump voiced skepticism of the EU, arguing that it was "formed to take advantage of the United States."[172] He criticized the EU on other occasions, usually due to the organization's trade policies.[173] In an interview on July 1, 2018, President Trump stated that the EU "is possibly as bad as China" on trade.[174] On July 15, 2018, President Trump described the EU as a "foe" of the U.S., along with Russia and China.[175]
- Among numerous other statements promoting an "America First" foreign policy, President Trump stated at a diplomatic press conference in April 2018 that the United States should prioritize its own needs rather than act as the "policeman of the world."[176] On December 4, 2018, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo gave a speech promoting national sovereignty and criticizing multilateralism.[177]
- While not an official policy action, the Trump Administration took a strong stance against China after its government told airline companies to change how they refer to Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau, criticizing the Chinese government for engaging in "Orwellian nonsense."[178] In June 2018, the Trump Administration released a report strongly criticizing China economic policies as a threat to U.S. national security.[179] President Trump himself indicated that China was a greater threat than Russia.[180] On October 4, 2018, Vice President Mike Pence gave a strong speech on China, speaking out against the country,[181] and he made subsequent statements against China.[182]

Failures, 2018
Many of these failures and setbacks to the MAGA agenda, if not all of them, were caused by Congress or officials in the Trump Administration, rather than President Trump himself:
